POISON
Leaving the Altar
I was at the airport waiting with all my bag pack and boarding pass sitting on the waiting zone scrolling through my phone
I was just out of a wedding.
And now I was here alone, without my bride. Without the love of my life! Without My Idris!
Rohan
*text message*
Look at your doll, isn't she the most beautiful bride anyone would have ever seen?
It was a text message from Rohan
And I viewed her picture.
Rivaan
*smiles caressing her picture with his thumb**
Yeah, she was the most beautiful bride anyone would have ever seen.
I thought of typing something up but then... I couldn't, I ended up blocking Theo's number
Everything has been settled
Tomorrow the headlines would be all over America.
"The youngest son of Pratap Mallik, Rivaan Mallik died in a horrible accident."
Vihaan and Dad have even arranged for my corpse for Idris to see.
After Idris would know that I left her at the altar she would hate me, and when she would know that I died, she would know not to wait for me. She will be forced to believe that I'll never come back.
And then, maybe then she can have a happily ever after with someone who is not me.
Someone who is far better than me.
Someone who isn't a coward like me
Just a minute later they announced
"Good afternoon passengers. This is the pre-boarding announcement for flight 89B to Pari We are now inviting those passengers with small children, and any passengers requiring special assistance, to begin boarding at this time. Please have your boarding pass and identification ready. Regular boarding will begin in approximately ten minutes time. Thank you."
Rivaan
*takes a deep breath and switches off his iPhone**
It's time now I say bye to the city which had my girl holding up here
If fate has it, I would be glad to see you again. I don't know how but... I would love to see you happy someday with him and his kids.
A thing that neither did you ever get...
Nor could I have ever given to you.
Rivaan
*smashes his iPhone breaking it and throws it into the trash can**
I mumbled and set up my bag-pack over my back and left to board the plane
Inside the plane, I was trying to find my seat and finally got one. My seat was next to the alley.
There was this beautiful young woman seated at the window besides my seat, who I think was going to be my companion for this 27-hour journey.
She was going through her phone.. But sure she was one hell of a beauty.
I immediately said snuffling through the handkerchief as I was kinda vulnerable right now. The kind of mood I would not want this woman to watch me in right now
Naina
*snuffles a quick smile and got back at her phone**
She didn't reply. Just smiled. She looked sad to me, just like how I was.
The things I was going through inside my head right now, I wanted to share those things with someone and don't know why, here in this very moment, this girl seemed just as broken as I was.
The Flight
I sat down quietly until the plane started to take off.
As soon as the plane started lifting from the ground the girl sitting next to me immediately grabbed onto my hands and clenched onto it tightly.
Her eyes were closed and she was continuously mumbling a prayer.
Naina
Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and ever shall be,
world without end.
She kept mumbling the prayer again and again pushing me down back to my memory lane
Idris
Oh my gosh… Oh my gosh, *grabs a hold on Rivaan's hand tightly** Rivaan it's flying... It's FLYING!!!
Rivaan
Yeah, I know it's flying. Can you just leave my hand now? *a little irritated**
Idris
*let's go of his hands and hug him tightly**
Rivaan
*surprised and flushed, having bubbling feelings**
Idris
I love you... I love you... I love you!!!
Idris
This is so crazy we are flying high. I'm scared but it's so much fun!! *giggles**
Rivaan
Okay, were you born stupid, or you act like this only in front of me? *jerking her hands off of himself**
Idris
*pouts sadly** Why are you saying that?
Idris
*hugs onto him more tightly squeezing the life out of him deliberately**
Rivaan
Ahh... Id..ris... Let Go Of Me!!
Idris
*giggles** Nope! First you tell me that you love me.
Rivaan
*says urgently** I love you!
Idris
Say that you will always be there for me
Rivaan
I will always be there for you.
Idris
Say that you'll never break my heart
Rivaan
I'll never break your heart!
Idris
Say that you want to marry me!
Rivaan
I want to marry you- *shocked at what he just repeated after in the flow**
Rivaan
*gets angry** No! No! No! That wasn't what I meant. You made me say it.
Rivaan
IDRIS?! *angry** *jerks off her arms from around himself**
Idris
*giggles pulling his cheeks** Aww, did I hurt the feelings of my baby?
Idris
*grabs his collar and pulls him closer to herself, looking seductively in his eyes** Then prove it
Rivaan
Prove what? *gulps looking at the woman so close, so beautiful**
Idris
That you're not a baby.. *inch up closer to his lips** Kiss. Me.
Rivaan
*stares at her lips**
Idris
What are you looking at? I'm all yours Rivaan. Only yours. Kiss Me!
Rivaan
*wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her closer to himself, cups her cheek softly and then kiss her**
Naina
...Ever shall be, world without end.
I was brought back from those lane with the woman's continuously mumbling
Rivaan
Umm... Can you leave my hand now?
I asked her and she looked at me with no clue at all
Naina
*quickly takes it off** Uhh... Yeah. I'm sorry.
She smiled nervously and pushed a few strands of her hair locks falling out
Naina
I'm just too afraid of the take off and landing. I am not a big fan of long flight journeys.
